I agree that all shooters are just too samey. I actually have an idea for game deconstructing a few of genre's most annoying cliches (especially the "disembodied genocidal gun" type of a protagonist). Yes, i hate brown blandness that much.

Even though the keyboard and mouse controls are more sensitive, I definitely enjoy fps games from the couch with a gamepad. The exception being metroid prime with its awesome wii point and shoot scheme.

Shamus have you tried Natural Selection? Because that is a Shooter with Base Building if your playing as the Marines of course! Most Awesome shooter of the good old days. And they are developing NS with the current Source Engine! \o/

Replace bolded bit with "with the brand new, 100% owned by the developers, Spark engine!" and you'll be perfectly accurate. (By the way, they've released several builds of the map editor and the Engine Test for pre-orderers already)

Ever played multiplayer C&C Renegade (or Renegade X, it's unofficial UT3 remake)? Fun, if hard not to get run over.
